How to install a WordPress theme-3

<div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;" trbidi="on">
If automatic installation fails, or you want to install a theme that 
is not available in the WordPress directory, you’ll need to use this 
alternative route for installing your theme.<br />

You will need to know several details about your server / hosting account:<br />

<ul>
<li>server address / domain name</li>
<li>hosting/server username</li>
<li>hosting/server password</li>
<li>location of your WordPress installation inside the hosting account (usually directly into the <strong>public_html</strong> folder or some folder inside this)</li>
</ul>
Then you will need a <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ftp" target="_blank">FTP</a> client (<strong><a href="https://filezilla-project.org/download.php" target="_blank">FileZilla</a></strong> is a great free program).<br />

Installing a WordPress theme can be easy or difficult, depending on 
the theme and it’s availability (or lack thereof) in the WordPress 
themes directory.<br />

The automatic installation process comes very handy with published 
themes, but sometimes things fail or themes are not available, and one 
must resort to the old fashioned files upload, either via WordPress or 
via the old fashioned FTP.  This tutorial describes all three methods.<br />
